ausbiz | Activam's outlook on AI, earnings growth, and global equity markets.

On ausbiz, Robert Talevski discussed why strong earnings momentum, continued AI investment, and improving market breadth continue to support the outlook for global equities despite potential near-term volatility.

Key themes:
▪️ Activam maintains an overweight position in global equities, global small caps, emerging markets, and credit.
▪️ AI and strong earnings momentum remain the key drivers supporting the current bull market.
▪️ While short-term pullbacks are possible, strong earnings and AI-driven growth continue to support a constructive longer-term outlook.

Great catching up with Nadine Blayney and Kylie Merritt from ausbiz in Melbourne this week. Huge congratulations on what they’ve built. Ausbiz has become an important platform for the Australian business, adviser and investor community.

The photo on the left was from my very first Ausbiz appearance over six years ago, alongside one from a recent segment.

Safe to say my set up has improved… and hopefully so have I. In the early days, I had zero budget, zero lighting, zero production, just me doing everything myself and hoping for the best.

Congrats again to the Ausbiz team on the journey so far - excited to see what’s next.

I recently joined Ricardo Gonçalves on the SBS Australia On the Money Podcast & World News Bulletin to discuss the key themes currently shaping markets and investor sentiment.

We covered the recent selloff in Australian equities, geopolitical uncertainty, weakness in mining stocks, developments across local companies, the growing interest in a potential SpaceX IPO, and how we are currently positioning portfolios.

Thank you to Ricardo and the SBS team for having me.

In this interview with Ricardo Gonçalves from SBS On the Money Podcast, Robert Talevski discusses themes currently shaping markets and investor sentiment.

They covered the recent selloff in Australian equities and how markets are responding to ongoing geopolitical uncertainty, the pullback in miners despite recent record highs, notable developments across local companies, and the much-talked-about SpaceX IPO. He also shared our current thinking on portfolio positioning, where we continue to see opportunities emerging, and what we’re communicating to clients in navigating the current environment.
